The editorial office will review the request and determine whether a formal correction notice is required.

A retraction may be issued when a published article is found to contain serious errors, unreliable findings, ethical violations, or publication integrity problems that substantially undermine the validity or credibility of the work.

Retraction notices will normally be published as separate notices and linked to the original article. The original article may remain accessible in the journal archive, but it will be clearly marked as retracted.

撤稿声明通常作为独立通知发布，并与原文章相互链接。原文章可继续保留在期刊档案中，但必须清楚标记为已撤稿。

A retraction notice should identify the article being retracted, state the reason for retraction, indicate who initiated the retraction where appropriate, and provide sufficient information for readers to understand the nature of the issue.

撤稿声明应明确被撤稿文章，说明撤稿原因，在适当情况下说明撤稿由谁提出，并提供足够信息，使读者理解相关问题的性质。

Retraction notices should avoid defamatory language and should present findings in a factual, accurate, and proportionate manner.

撤稿声明应避免诽谤性语言，并以事实性、准确和适度的方式说明相关情况。

当已发表文章存在严重疑问，但现有证据尚不完整、调查仍在进行，或暂时无法作出最终判断时，本刊可发布关注声明。

An expression of concern may be updated, replaced by a correction, followed by a retraction, or removed if the concern is resolved and no issue is confirmed.

关注声明可根据后续情况更新，或被更正声明、撤稿声明取代；如相关问题得到澄清且未确认存在问题，也可予以撤除。

Authors may request withdrawal of a manuscript before publication. Withdrawal requests should be submitted in writing to the editorial office with a clear explanation.

作者可在文章正式出版前申请撤回稿件。撤回请求应以书面形式提交至编辑部，并说明清楚理由。

If a manuscript has already been accepted and has entered production, metadata processing, repository processing, DOI registration, layout preparation, or online publication preparation, withdrawal may be subject to editorial approval and may not always be possible.

如稿件已经录用，并已进入制作、元数据处理、开放存储库处理、DOI 注册、排版准备或在线发布准备阶段，撤回可能需要编辑部批准，且并非总是可以完成。

Withdrawal after publication is treated as a retraction request and will be assessed according to the journal’s retraction policy.

文章正式出版后的撤回请求将被视为撤稿请求，并按照本刊撤稿政策进行审查。

Post-Publication Updates｜出版后更新

Published articles should not be changed without a transparent record. If updates are necessary, the journal will indicate the nature of the change through a correction notice, update notice, version note, or other appropriate mechanism.

已发表文章不应在无透明记录的情况下被修改。如确需更新，本刊将通过更正声明、更新说明、版本说明或其他适当机制标明修改性质。

Minor technical corrections that do not affect the scholarly content, such as fixing broken links or typographical metadata errors, may be made where appropriate, but significant changes will be documented.

对于不影响学术内容的轻微技术性修正，例如修复失效链接或元数据排印错误，本刊可酌情处理；重大修改则应予以记录。

如作者认为更正、撤稿或关注声明决定受到重大程序错误、事实误解或利益冲突影响，可提出申诉。

Appeals must be submitted in writing with clear reasons and supporting evidence. The editorial office will review appeals in a fair and responsible manner, but submission of an appeal does not guarantee reversal of the original decision.

申诉须以书面形式提出，并提供明确理由与支持证据。编辑部将以公正、负责的方式审查申诉，但提出申诉并不意味着原决定必然被改变。

Transparency and Record Keeping｜透明性与记录保存

The journal maintains appropriate records of correction requests, retraction investigations, expressions of concern, editorial decisions, author responses, and related correspondence.
